Moana Pasifika will want to prove a point - Byrne

The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua is aiming to match the physicality of the Moana Pasifika in the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific clash this weekend.

Coach Mick Byrne says the Moana Pasifika is a physical side and they proved that when they met earlier this year.

He says the visitors also have a lot of quality players out wide which the Fijian Drua will need to keep an eye on.

The Fijian Drua will take on the Moana Pasifika at 2.05pm Saturday in Lautoka.

In other matches this week, the Highlanders will play the Reds at 7.05pm tomorrow, the Rebels will take on the Force at 9.35pm tomorrow, the Crusaders will host the Waratahs at 4.35pm Saturday, the Blues will play the Waratahs at 7.05pm Saturday while the Brumbies will take on the Chiefs at 9.35pm Saturday.
